    IMO, A smart move by Putin.  He has Trump in his back pocket: To have [something] in your BACK pocket" means you have the option of using that thing (which can be a person) in a situation where it is perhaps unexpected but will give you an advantage.

    Trump is among Putin's "Useful Idiots" Beans/SG. Trump has spent many months defending Putin. Putin can toss him a bone occasionally. Thank you for your reply and Happy Friday! :)

    You ASSUME Putin is privy to all of this then Karen?  Why? You assume Putin KNOWS truth and defends it?  Why? Are you a fan of Putin too? This post was edited by RosieG at May 19, 2017 5:06 AM MDT

  • You assume a lot as well. You assume every bad news article about Trump is true. Are you a fan of lies?

    I read in the Times today that Putin said it wasn't RUssia that was the source of the latest virus problems... he pointed the finger firmly at USA... lol you'd thought he would have more loyalty..

    He defended Trump about the collusion thing as if he knows anything. In fact he probably knows everything and helped in engineering the takeover of the US election process. In collusion with Trump and retinur of toady lemmings., SIGH. Thank you for your reply Addb! :)

    The US established press is Russophobic and in the huff at being excluded from the Lavrov meeting. So what they don't know, they make up...

    I see that you are among those who think the media lies and Trump is a saint. Thank you for your reply Malizz. I totally disagree with thee but so what, right? Different strokes! :) This post was edited by RosieG at May 19, 2017 5:05 AM MDT
